- NFL Kickoff Game will begin at 8:20 p.m. ET on Wednesday, Sept. 9, matching the Patriots and Seahawks in a rematch of Super Bowl 60’s teams.
- A.J. Brown is one of McClure’s top DFS picks; the three-time Pro Bowler enters New England with four straight 1,000-yard seasons after the Patriots traded a first-round pick for him.
- Seattle’s defense ranked No. 1 in scoring last season but allowed more touchdown receptions to opposing wide receivers than all but five teams.
- Jadarian Price is being selected after Seattle lost Zach Charbonnet to an ACL tear, with Price’s 1,400-plus rushing yards and 20 total college touchdowns cited as his foundation.
- Tory Horton and Mack Hollins are identified as undervalued options whom DFS players should not overlook when building lineups for FanDuel or DraftKings.
- Mike McClure says his model simulates every snap using matchups, statistical trends and injuries; the source attributes more than $2 million in career winnings to him and cites first-place finishes in three 2023 millionaire contests.
Why it matters: DFS players face a Sept. 9 slate where the source’s focal recommendations are Brown and Price, while Horton and Hollins offer lower-profile alternatives. For FanDuel and DraftKings users, the source presents the right value pick as the difference between winning a tournament or cash game and going home with nothing.
